Domarna i SM i Fotografi 2019 presenteras här
HUVUDDOMARE - JÖRGEN BRANDT, DANMARK
Fotografi er for mig en livsstil, et arbejde og en hobby – og grænserne flydende eller ikke eksisterende. I det kommercielle arbejder jeg med at fange stemning og følelse, at fange ”mennesket” som et levende individ – som et glimt af deres ”personlighed”. Billederne er tit portrætter af enkelte eller familier, fine art nude (boudoir), gravide, nyfødte, børn etc. Gennem tiden har jeg udstillet på forskellige gallerier samt museer og været med på en hel del udstillinger andre steder.
Egen fotokunst I mine egne natur og abstrakte eller Fine Art Nude billeder er det egentligt noget af det samme. Lyset og formen er altid med og skal understøtte billedet Som fotograf arbejder jeg i mine egne billeder mere og mere med det abstrakte, måske nærmere abstraktionen, hvor tingene bliver til mere og ofte andet end de er.
For mig handler fotografiet ikke om hvad jeg ser eller om hvad virkeligheden er. Det gjorde i begyndelsen og faktisk i mange år. Det var spændende, det udviklede sig – men det var, set i bakspejlet, også en spændetrøje. Virkeligheden, så spændende og udfordrende den kan være, er egentlig uinteressant i fantasiens verden. Det uanset om fantasien udspringer af virkeligheden eller ikke. Mine egne fotografier handler fantasi, der er opstået i den måde jeg vælger at se og bruge verden i mine billeder.
Desuden underviser jeg i og holder foredrag om fotografi i Danmark, på Færøerne, Japan, Letland, Frankrig, UK, Sverige med flere.
Har været/er mentor for fotografer fra bl.a. Danmark, Norge, Sverige, UK, Holland, Belgien, Slovakiet, Frankrig m. fl.

TRINE BJERVIG, NORGE (Digital domare / Digital Judge)
Fotograf Trine Bjervig har sin fotofaglige utdanning fra Idefagskolen på Nøtterøy. Der studerte hun i 3 år, og har siden også arbeidet på skolen som lærer i fotofag.
I løpet av de siste årene har hun vært flittig brukt som foredragsholder i inn og utland, og har til nå kurset over 400 fotografer i nyfødtfotografering.
Trine har fra begynnelsen av sin karriere, tilhørt toppsjiktet av norske fotografer. Hun har hevdet seg helt i teten hvert år i landskonkurransen for fagfotografer. I 2017 og 2019 kom hun på 1 plass og ble årets fotograf i Norge
Hun var blant de aller første i Norge som begynte med den formen for nyfødtfotografering vi har i dag. Det er dette området hun har valgt å spesialisere seg innenfor.
Trine elsker jobben sin, og det synes på resultatene. Hun føler seg heldig som får holde på med det hun liker aller best, og gleder seg til hver arbeidsdag. Det er et privilegium å få bli kjent med alle de fantastiske barna som kommer på besøk i studio, synes Trine. Hun får se kjærlighet mellom foreldre og barn på sine arbeidsdager. Disse øyeblikkene av pur lykke dokumenterer fotografen på best mulig måte for framtiden!
Hun får være en del av de største øyeblikkene og begivenhetene i menneskers liv. Det gjør henne ydmyk at akkurat hun blir betrodd denne rollen! Hennes fotografier skal være til glede for mennesker i flere generasjoner
Trine legger all sin stolthet i å gjøre jobben sin så godt som overhodet mulig, og det er viktig for henne at alle parter er stolte over resultatet.
Det finnes ingen samlebåndsmentalitet ved måten hun jobber på. Trine bestreber å gjøre hver fotografering unik. I dag bruker hun så mye tid på hver kunde at hun har begrenset inntaket til 3 kunder pr. uke.
Trine ønsker å være fotografen for dere som er opptatt av kvalitet og som ser verdien av godt håndverk og kreativitet i et fotografi.

Tiina does not want to be “just” a photographer or professional photo shooter. She is so much more and also her job is very much more diverse.
“I do not have a studio but it's not an obstacle to studio-like images. I teach and help, design and advise, yet my company is not a school.. I am a mother! It tells about me a lot. I am in the presence of my clients moments of life that are groundbreaking every time. Expecting a child, Birth, Growth. But .. I'm more than that. I am also a woman (like every other mothers) It is extremely important to celebrate of their own self. Enjoy friends and moments. The reason may be celebrating a milestone, spontaneous experience or empowering experience.”

Stories about how she begin to photograph was certainly quite typical: the first camera was grandfathers old, thanks to which she was interested in a black and white films and a darkroom. It brought the civic high school courses and the art-sized high school.

My pictures have momentum, dance, sensitivity, ambiance .. I specialize in images of people in ads or homes as wall art. A good image is always cooperation and, above all, always more than just an image.”

Sanjay has also been featured as one of the 6 Best Wedding Photographers in the World by Professional Photographer Magazine.
Sanjay and his wife Roshni own and run ‘Eye Jogia Photography’, a successful London based Luxury Destination Wedding Photography business, but Sanjay’s love of photography started at school with his father’s Canon AE-1 35mm film SLR camera and grew up within a culture of photography while his dad worked at the local Kodak factory for 35 years (where Sanjay also worked as a student actually manufacturing 35mm film).
A combination of this constant photocentric environment and his own creative curiosity meant that he is was self-taught and began developing his own style and approach from a young age.
He studied Architecture at the University of Bath in England all the while combining his love of photography with his architectural presentation techniques. Having qualified as an Architect, Sanjay believes strongly that there are many parallels between his Photography his Architectural training - for example: Light, composition, space, aesthetics, surface, texture creativity are all common elements to both.
His wedding portrait images are a blend of a fashion and movie inspired approach using beauty lighting and posing techniques which are balanced with a sensitive, observant and almost portrait-like documentary approach for the majority of wedding images giving his wedding couples the best of both worlds.
Sanjay loves to teach and inspire that ‘Eureka’ moment with people whether it’s at one of his rare and exclusive workshops, or at the various seminars and conventions that he is invited to speak at globally - either way he feels a duty to help protect and shape the future of our industry.

VIKTOR SUNDBERG - SVERIGE (Digital domare / digital judge)
Viktor Sundberg är född 1977 i Echuca, Australien och uppväxt i både England och Sverige. Numera är han bosatt i Mölnlycke, strax utanför Göteborg. Han började fotografera i slutet på 90-talet och är professionell fotograf, författare och utbildare sedan 2002.
Förutom att arbeta med uppdragsfotografering brinner Viktor för att lära ut foto och har hållit egna fotokurser i över 15 år. Viktor är även författare till de populära fotoböckerna Fotoskolan 1 och Fotoskolan 2 som används som kurslitteratur i flera fotoutbildningar.
Som ung spenderade Viktor somrarna bland klippor och hav i Bohuslän. Därför känner han en speciell relation till just dessa landskap. Han har alltid varit intresserad av kusten, havet och marina djur och har därför även studerat marinbiologi, ekologi och evolutionsteori på universitet vid sidan av sina ekonomistudier. Viktors passion för djur, natur och naturfoto går inte att ta miste på!
Fokusområden inom naturfotografi är landskap och fåglar. Landskapen växlar mellan dramatik och fridfullhet, är ofta vemodiga och samspelar nästan alltid med vatten på ett eller annat sätt. Med sina bilder på fåglar försöker Viktor fånga en känsla snarare än att dokumentera. Själva arten har alltid varit av mindre betydelse. En naturbild får gärna vara abstrakt, mystisk eller realistisk, men bör alltid vara förankrad i verkligheten. Att sprida förståelse och inspiration genom att visa upp naturens spektakulära mångfald har alltid varit ett av huvudmålen med Viktors bilder.
Viktor är en flitig föredragshållare och är ofta publicerad i respekterade magasin, tidskrifter och böcker. Viktor har flera fina placeringar i Nordiska mästerskapen i Naturfoto (NNPC) och är även medlem i Naturfotograferna och PhotoNatura.
